Spreading the Word Everywhere We Go

Recycle Brevard! was created to help get useful and practical information on reducing, reusing, and recycling out in the community. That way more residents will understand the importance of practicing the 3Rs and have resources to support living by them.

In order for local residents to access and use the resources we make available, they need to know about Recycle Brevard! and how to get to this blog and our Facebook page. In 2011 we made business cards (on recycled paper, of course), created a banner that we bring to events we participate in, and added our information to signs we use and put on our recycle bins. But we felt that those were not enough...

To start this year bringing Recycle Brevard! everywhere we go, we ordered and installed magnetic signs on our car and made a few t-shirts that we will wear when working on projects, participating in events and whenever else we feel appropriate.

We hope that this way all we do will reach more residents and we can get even more supporters.

Recycle Brevard

A Word from our Founder

Hi! My name is Marcia Booth. I am a mom of one and step-mom of two who lives in Brevard County and is concerned about the use of our natural resources and the effects of that on our environment in general.

Our family embraces recycling and other kinds of conservation. We enjoy, appreciate, and respect nature. We understand that everything in this universe is connected and we need to take care of our world, starting at our home and our community.

I believe in our community and in the power of different people working together toward a common goal. My hope is that this initiative helps in the journey of making the world a more sustainable place for us all to live in.

Since there's no better time to start than now, let's take this journey together and make it happen!
